Could be 10% minimum tariff I'd say, we'll just have to lump it though

I'm not lumping any 10% tariff.. If i have to i'll do a factory delivery and drive it the required 1000Km before bringing it home to the UK..

Does that work? I thought you have to live/have a registered address in the other country and have owned the car for at least 6 months before bringing it back (at least that is the rough guideline I remember when I looked to buy a car in the US without paying the import duties)

Beside you may have to settle the price in euro which by then, in this new world we don’t k ow yet about, might have appreciated by a further 10%!!

I just phoned my OPC and they assure me that my September build RS will definitely enter the UK before the end of October..Its the date it enters the UK apparently not when it's delivered to the customer.

Are you sure the exhaust is lighter than the previous titanium 991.2RS one? Every statement I have ever seen from Porsche reads as if it’s lighter than the previous filterless SS system that was on the 991.2 GT3. They have never explicitly said the SS exhaust with filters is lighter even than the titanium one on the pre-filter 991.2RS. If it were, they’d say so I would have thought?

I've heard the wording of one doc is actually 'Compared to the familiar titanium sports exhaust system, the resulting design is almost 20% lighter and comprises ................'

Somewhat interesting data point - SportAuto weighed a gpf car at 1460kg on their most recent track test with it and it was 17kg heavier than the earlier non filter car. Similar spec afaik, weissach, mag wheels, no pcm.

But how many people could really tell you if they drove two identical cars back to back which one was 25kgs heavier than the other?

I think current touring cars are 1200 and something KG’s and even with a 48kgs penalty the difference per lap in the hands of a pro race driver is about 0.000#* nano squats

I’m 6 foot 16 stone,I think Archie Hamilton is 4 foot ten inches and weighs 6 stone,I’d have to take the fking gearbox out to get down to his weight including driver Lol

Anyway I’m more concerned about getting it than weighing it

,I have gone bold on green vents though

That looks great, an RS needs some colour inside IMO

Does anyone have a definite answer regarding how many Weissach 991.2 RS UK cars were supplied?

According to How many left there were 147 registered in 2019 and 4 in 2020 but a few were not WP cars and some were imports.
